Crime doesn't stop for the holidays, as this anthology of gripping Christmas mysteries shows with its baffling robberies, mysterious deaths and family gatherings that go terribly wrong.

Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, cloth-bound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. The stories in Secrets in the Snow & Other Christmas Crime Stories have been selected and introduced by writer Matthew Booth.

When snow falls and darkness comes early, it's the perfect setting for murder and intrigue. And when family and friends gather in country houses for jolly festivities, they're certainly not expecting guests and priceless jewellery to go missing. But it's fertile ground for classic crime writers such as Arthur Conan Doyle, G. K. Chesterton and Dorothy L. Sayers who, amongst others, are showcased in this nail-biting collection.
